At home

[bubba]

I take mine off when I'm home.

Then again, I also walk around naked alot when I'm home, so keeping the sporran off would only be natural.

But you DO put the sporran back on to answer the door, right?

I only had the trad for a couple of days but it looks like I already found my way. When I come home I drop off the sporran and change my trad to SportKilt. Just better when lying dead on the sofa wathing tv and such. And no sporran. I can surely move my cellphone from table to another by hand, or even go to another room to answer it when its ringing! :mrgreen:

Once and only once, I was walking around the house without the sporran and my lovely wife said "Honey, you look much better wearing the sporran". I wasn't sure if she meant with or without the kilt, so I always wear it now. It pays to keep the chief financial officer happy ;-)

That gave me an unwelcomed image inside my head... xI

If I haven't ventured out of the house yet, no sporran.

If I've gone out and come home, sporran.

Occasionally I will take it off once I get home...all depends on, well, nothing really. Just if I want to or not.

I never wear a sporran around the house. I sometimes wear one shopping if I need the pocket. I always wear one when wearing a kilt with jacket and tie.

Without, and I agree with Mac and Schultz (hope thats not TMI!). When I wear pants I take my wallet, keys, change, cell phone off when I walk in the door and put them on the counter. No different with the sporran, although if I am going back out I can just take off the sporran and strap and have everything all together!

However, as mentioned on another thread, that is the advantage of a contemporary kilt, POCKETS! I find that I like the look of a sporran with a tartan kilt, but for every day wear, a UK or other pocketed kilt, is the way to go.

I always leave my sporran on. I have the Kidder Country Sporran and attach it to my kilt belt with belt loops. This seems to keep the sporran out of the way as compared with a chain. And for some reason, I feel better with the sporran on.

I always have my sporran on, well .
Without pockets, I need somewhere to put my glasses, hanky etc.
I work from home so I use it for small tools such as pencils, pens.

Wearing the sporran on a strap I can slide it out of the way when sitting.

I love sporrans, they are far more useful than pockets.

I never wear a sporran around the house. I sometimes wear one shopping if I need the pocket. I always wear one when wearing a kilt with jacket and tie.

Around the house/garden, whether alone or with company, I never wear a sporran. Maybe, in the summer when I am not wearing a jacket, I will wear a sporran when leaving the house. If I am wearing one of my contemporary/alternative kilts - with pockets - I most certainly will not wear a sporran. Whenever I am dressed so much as semi-formally (ie: with an Argyll or other traditional jacket with a tie) then I will wear a sporran. Formal dress, of course, requires that a formal sporran be worn, and so I do.
